Ok... so maybe my scale weight is still up and maybe I still don't see anything in the mirror... but I want to say that I am finally feeling a little bit of change. I had a lovely talk with my trainer, which helped. I also had a good talk with AI, who I asked to remind me of all the science behind how I could be seemingly stagnant.
The other day, I also paddleboarded for the first time ever. And I was all alone! I was so scared, I'm scared of everything. Scared of falling in the water and not being able to get back on. Scared of falling in the water and touching a lake monster with my toes. Scared of getting fatigued, of doing something wrong, of getting stranded, of having to ask for help.
Of course none of those things happened. I just... paddled my little heart out for almost 2 hours. Physically, I found it very easy (I only sat, mind you, I'm not very interested in standing up!). I definitely got very nervous when spotting any other vessels on the lake, but I kept my distance.
I even did my rowerg workout for 40 minutes when I got back home.
It feels like a big step toward being an "Active Person" like I want to be! Active People totally paddleboard in the summertime! :-)
